BLÜ EYES - If I Were A Friend

Capo: 2nd fret

[Verse]
A
If I were a friend
E
I’d know just what to say
F#m
To fix everything
E D
Make it all go away

A
If I wasn’t in my head
E
I could help me settle down
F#m
Make all of this make sense
E D
Cuz it doesn’t right now

[Chorus]
E
Yeah I feel like
F#m
I’m a failure, falling behind
A
I’m not good enough
D
and I couldn’t tell you why
E F#m
I can’t seem to stop thinking it
A
Even though saying it out loud,
D
it sounds ridiculous
F#m E D
But I’m still trying

[Verse]
A
If I were a friend
E
I’d say come on over
F#m
And we’ll take a walk, we can talk, or not
D
Save the stress for when we’re older

A
I’d say you’re doing your best
E
And that’s all that really counts
F#m
So just take a breath
D
And let it all out

[Chorus]
E
Yeah right now I’m
F#m
Always tired, lonely as hell
A
Can’t seem to ever
D
Be enough for myself
E F#m
I can’t seem to stop thinking it
A
Even though saying it out loud,
D
it sounds so ridiculous
F#m E D
But I’m still trying

[Interlude]
A E F#m D x2
Ahhh

[Bridge]
D A
Why is it that I’m only ever okay
E
With anybody else but me making mistakes
F#m
I never give myself any reason to break
D
When I need it

[Outro]
A
I’m saying this as a friend
E
You’re too hard on yourself
F#m
You’re worth so much more than you
give yourself credit for
D
I know you know it well
